Old Dogs, Children And Watermelon Wine
By Tom T. Hall
G
How old do you think I am he said
C
I said well I didn’t know
D7CG
He said I turned 65 about 11 months ago
CAm
I was sitting in Miami pouring blended whisky down
CGAmD7G
When this old grey black gentleman was cleaning up the lounge
G7CAm
There wasn't any one around but this old man and me
D7CD7G
The guy who tended bar was watching ironsides on tv
G7CAm
Uninvited he sat down and opened up his mind
CGAmD7G
On old dogs and children and watermelon wine
G7CAm
Have you ever had a drink of watermelon wine he asked
D7CD7G
He told me all about it though I didn't answer back
G7CAm
Ain't but three things in life that's worth a solitary dime
CGAmD7G
That's old dogs and children and watermelon wine
G7CAm
He said women think about themselves when their men-folk aren't around
D7CD7G
And friends are hard to find when they discover that you're down
G7CAm
He said I tried it all when I was young and in my natural prime
CGAmD7G
Now it's old dogs and children and watermelon wine
G7CAm
He said old dogs care about you even when you make mistakes
D7CD7G
God bless little children while they're still too young to hate
G7CAm
As he moved away I got my pen and copied down that line
CGAmD7G
On old dogs and children and watermelon wine
G7CAm
I had to catch a plane up to Atlanta the next day
D7CD7G
As I left for my room I saw him picking up my change
G7CAm
That night I dreamed in peaceful sleep of shady summer times
CGAmD7G
Of old dogs and children and watermelon wine
